There was some pre-net discussion about the new 2025 Yaesu mobile VHF/UHF radios and their shift away from digital.
According to the new radio's manuals, only two models still support a digital connection on the back of the radio.
FTM-510 and FTM150.
Worse yet (imho), only one model, the FTM-510 supports C4FM digital audio and has an on board GPS for APRS.?

Folks like myself got spoiled with the FTM200, 300, 400 and 500 radios with all the features and a nice price tag.
I'd guess they just got more valuable on the used market.
